Kawasaki Ninja 1000 ABS keeps an estimated 88% of its value after 5 years — #10 of 1189 powersports vehicles VINdown tracks. See its full depreciation curve, cost per day, and best model year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Kawasaki Ninja 1000 ABS retains an estimated 88% of its value after five years, ranking #10 of 1189 powersports vehicles we track. That is 6 points above the 82% five-year average for Sport in its class, so it holds value better than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Kawasaki Ninja 1000 ABS sheds about 2% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $12,199 it falls to around $10,722 by year five — a five-year loss near $1,477, about $0.81 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 3, a lightly-used Kawasaki Ninja 1000 ABS bought at 3 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
